When I found a pyramid it was just too easy to get my 11 gold, 2 emeralds, 3 diamonds, 12 iron, and 9 TNT. there needs to be something more to protect it. Such as "Desert Guardians" AKA "Gold Golems".
Health Points
200 (x100) (Debatable)
Armor 4 ()
-Includes Boss Health Bar
-They do not: Take fall damage, Drown in Water or Burn in fire/Lava -Slow healing factor so that you can't attack then wait a long time then attack again
-High resistance to ranged attacks Attack Strength Melee Strike:
Easy 4 () Medium 6 () Hard 8 () Charge Attack:
Easy 7 () Medium 9 () Hard 11 () Laser Attack:
Easy 4 ()+Medium 6 ()+Hard 9 ()+
(see info below) Spawn
-In Desert Temples
-Only ONE Gold Golem will spawn in the temple
-If a Gold Guardian generated as part of a Pyramid is killed, another will NOT spawn to take its place. -The Golem WILL spawn in peaceful, but will stay inactive. Drops (5-10)(Why Gold? Because Ancient Egypt used Gold Plating on it's statues)) (3-6)(Why Lapis? EXCELLENT QUESTION! The golem has blue glyphs on it and i like Lapis)
( 1 )( Mob Head. Trophy/Used to create Inanimate Statues) (more info below)
( 1 )("Power Core". An Item Used To Revive The Fallen Boss) (more info below)
(Not so strange to think about now-a-days since the dragon can be re-summoned with a single purpose item) Experience 50 EXP (Iron Golems Drop 0)
(Wither Drops 50)
(Dragon Drops 1,200)
Movement
Rather slow unless charging
(more info below)
Does not need to jump to move up 1 block
Behavior -The golem will stand dormant in the Pyramid like a statue until a player gets within it's line of sight
(10 Blocks), then it will "Wake Up" and attack the player. (It will also awake if any chests within a 20 block radius are interacted with. Eyes are dark while Inactive)
Once awake, it's awareness of the player will extend 32? blocks. If the player manages to escape, the Gold Golem will give up the chase and go back to its spawn point (or if target is killed).
It moves slowly, but when it gets close (5-8 blocks Ish?), it will begin its attack pattern: -Attempting to Melee the player three times, raising it's arms for a moment then brings them down, giving about half a second to react and move away.
-After that, Its jaw will drop, the Eyes Glow Red and it will charge the player, making a low Roar as it attacks. This sprint can only be stopped by a wall (of at LEAST 2m tall) OR if the golem has charged for a distance of 10 blocks, causing a sort of bull fighter effect. (Anything weaker than blast resistance 30 EXCEPT for sandstone/sandstone variants will be broken on impact. stones/sandstone will show damage cracks but never break from impact.) -Finally, After it has come to a stop, It will look at the player, after a few seconds will shoot a beam from its mouth in a horizontal line with the player in the midpoint, causing a sort of sweep attack from left to right. (This laser will be able to break the same blockset as the charge attack, igniting any Mob/Player in its path as well as any blocks it comes in contact with. The point of this is to clear out possible barricades the player has built around it, or used to hide.)
-If the player cannot be reached for Melee attacks (Like, being stuck in a hole or a small doorway) The Golem will go strait to using its Charge (To break a wall that's possibly blocking it), Then continue with the Laser.
Gold Golems do not attack random monsters because random monsters don't want to steal treasure. A Gold Golem's primary purpose is to defend Pyramids from raiding players
(But using one as a guard in your prison/gladiatorial battle/boss for your dungeon, is also GREAT!) (And Because they only target players they cant be used to make mob grinders to get items easier.)
WHY ATTACK PLAYERS?: Gold Guardians are meant to protect Pyramids from THIEVES (Players) As Iron Golems protect Villagers from zombies.
(And YES, Players are thieving from the pyramid, there is no way to sugar coat it. You tomb raiding player you......)

They do not; Take fall damage, Drown in Water or Burn in fire/Lava
The Guardian Can NOT Be Tamed! (The Purpose of the Golem is to attack players. NOT RANDOM MONSTERS! If you want that then make IronGolems. Not Going To Debate It.)
Crafting A Statue/Reviving the Boss.
To craft An Inanimate statue place the dropped boss's head onto a T of gold blocks.
To revive, use the "Power Core" on the statue to bring it back to life with a mighty roar and a short "Boot up" time
If you have been to one of these temples. you will see THIS BLOCK all over. It is the reason for the creeper faces and the Lapis bands. There ya have it.
I will not make a poll. This thread has had a number of polls, each having up to a thousand "yes" votes, so I don't find much of a reason to make one.

I like this but it should not be able to go out of the pyramid or it would rage on the poor villagers that live near it.
Iron Golem vs Gold Golem! Totally worth to watch >:3

Haha, Villagers are Passive, thus safe from Gold fury. Iron Golems on The other hand =)
I like it. Golden automatons protecting ancient structures? What's not to like? My only suggestion is that golden golems built by players do not consider their creator as an attackeable being... UNLESS struck with lightning, which makes them go bezerk and attack everything regardless of its standard mode rules (it's rare enough that it'd be a total surprise). They'd still attack non-creators, perhaps, even without a bolt of lightning.
Traps Yes, Now You Guys see the many applications! I'm not sure about the lightning thing but, if they were friendly to the creator restarting the server would set them to "Natural" and they would attack. thats not just me talking, thats the coding for the iron golem EDIT: The Pyramid doors are too small, so unless the player makes a golem or makes the doorway bigger the golem will stay inside
Well I have to say that this is a nice idea Dingo, but I wouldn't put it in the game. Simply because everyone wants to put something in the game that is a bit 'useless'. I'm not saying that this is a bad idea but I think it would be better for a mod of some sort
If you want I could just try and add it to the game with a mod. It would be a nice challenge for me and (atleast I hope) fun for others to try it out. Tell me what you think
~ Frosty
Ps.: Keep up the good ideas!
I'd LOVE to see It In Vanilla, but thanks for the offer. and when it comes to useless Mobs i think Creepers come in #1 ( jk but still it would be great)
The appearance is great, especially the sketch. The idea however is really unoriginal. Maybe instead of attacking on the same way as the iron golem, the gold golem should hit its enemy's down instead of up in the air. Gold is really heavy so it sounds more logically and it would be more original.
Personally, I think this is a good idea, so that some newly spawned player cant just drop into a pyramid and have plenty of diamonds, also since pyramids are always the same, I think that pyramids should have a bit more vairity (like strongholds, but not as huge. Segments put together to lead to a singular "reward" point would make pyramids more interesting, instead of a big room, a couple coridors, and a big drop that leads to TNT.
Note that I never seen a pyramid firsthand, so this description may be inacurate.
Pyramids and other randomly generated structures have a lot of potential. I think this, or something like it should be implemented vanilla, if not a mod.

I mostly love the ideal texture and head of the gole design, but, since gold is a dense element, so The golem should be a tad bit shorter and skinnier and it's attacks are more of a heavy, knock down type of attack. It could probably use the iron golem sound when walking, or some sort of loud creaking sound when attacking.

I know what it means to be alone,
I sure do wish I was at home.
I don't care what the neighbors say,
I'm gonna love you each and every day.
You can feel the beat within my heart.
Realize, sweet babe, we ain't ever gonna part.
I like it, perhaps you can tame the pyramid golems with gold nuggets so they don't beat the **** out of you?
I Don't Like the idea of "Taming" anything other than Cats and Dogs. If we could tame creepers that would be a griefing nightmare.
if we could tame Zombies, that would be more like Necromancy witch is more plausible, but lets not get off topic talking about Necromancy.
My reasoning is the same average damage, but can't 1 hit kill you. And it will kill silverfish, sheep, small or tiny slimes/magma cubes, untamed wolves, and snow golems with 1 hit, but an Iron Golem can only do that to small or tiny slimes/magma cubes, snow golems, and chickens.

Why does everyone think I don't have an avatar? Is there anyone who can see the one black pixel.
Please click the dragons, they need to grow. Also, my fully grown dragons can be found in my bio.
I have never been a fan of golem suggestion threads but this still does not change me. Why does it drop lapis? To me it just sounds like another golem suggestion thread except it is A LOT more descriptive, and the golem is stationary until a hostile/neutral mob walks in 10 blocks of it. Good job on not making me want to out right flame yet another golem thread though .
